Abstract
A practical and effective asymmetric oxidation of prochiral sulfide 1 to (S)-2 has been described. The enantioselectivity was not found to b e influenced by moisture and moderate to high selectivity was obtained at room temperature (25 degrees C). (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. Al l rights reserved.
